I, the grandson of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, earned 100 million taels at the beginning

It was a rain of shells that day.

On that day, 10,000+ Japanese warriors did not resist, and were smashed to pieces by the iron ball.

In that battle, the Wa Kingdom was almost wiped out.

Yes, you can't fight the enemy at home. Once the enemy's warship arrives, they don't even have the ability to resist.

It's not that the Japanese have never studied artillery, and their warships also have artillery.

However, according to the observations of the high-ranking Japanese officials, the range of their artillery is less than half of that of Daming. If they loaded a little more medicine, they would directly explode their chambers.

After research, they found that it was an iron problem, but they couldn't solve it. The production of their small workshops can guarantee the production of weapons. It's good to improve the quality of iron.

In the end, it was the emperor's staff who proposed a strategy that was approved by everyone.

That is to ignite the fire of war on the territory of Ming Dynasty.

Without the powerful army of the navy, on land, their warriors of the Great Japanese Kingdom are no worse than Ming's army.

In this way, not only can you avoid being blocked at home to fight against beatings, but also let the enemy's people taste the pain of war.

In their deduction, their powerful flintlock troops can fight against Ming's troops 1v2 or even 1v5 without losing the wind.

As long as they dispatched 10 troops, they would be able to sweep Daming invincibly.

As for whether it is what they think, they don't care, anyway, they just need to think so in their hearts, and even propagate it to the soldiers below.

In fact, in the high-level thinking of the Wa country, it doesn't matter if you win or lose.

It's a normal thing to lose the fight, and the worst thing is to return to the mainland and continue to pay compensation and cede the land. This is not the first time they have done this, and they are already familiar with it.

If you are lucky enough to win, you can get a vast territory, and you don’t have to live in such a big place in the future, let alone face the risks of tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions every day, and you also have vast land to grow food. Countless mines, countless beauties with money.

The more I think about it, the more reasonable it is for the top management of the Wa Kingdom.

If you lose, your life will be a little bit harder, and if you win, you will become a serf and sing.

The idea is good, but where to attack first is a problem.

Daming's naval squadron and an army unit are still stationed in Izumo. If they directly attack Daming, it is estimated that the battle has not yet started, and their hometown will be copied later.

A group of people scratched their heads and discussed for a few days, and finally decided to attack North Korea, first looking for a station on the mainland.

After annexing North Korea and digesting it for a few years, and after its own strength has been greatly enhanced, it will use North Korea as a springboard to attack Ming Dynasty.

As for attacking North Korea, they have also considered whether Daming will help North Korea.

Later, after research, they found that North Korea and their Japanese melon country were listed as non-conquerable countries by Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty.

That is to say, as long as it is not a big mistake, Daming will not attack them.

As for what happened in the past few years?

The high-level officials of the Wa Kingdom speculated that it might be a disaster caused by the Izumo Silver Mine.

As a weak country with a huge silver mine, you will be beaten if you don't.

Now that they have handed over the silver mines, they honor the Ming army stationed in Japan every year just like honoring their father.

Coupled with the fact that he has paid tribute to Daming every year in the past few years, he can already be regarded as a qualified dog leg.

The higher-ups of the Japanese kingdom thought that as long as they gave Da Ming enough benefits when the war broke out, I believed that Da Ming would not care about the fight between the two dogs.

They think so, and they do so.

Before the war broke out, they dedicated their lives to the Ming troops in Izumo, and they were also recognized by the commanders stationed in Wa.

In the words of that commander, Shen An, as long as something happens for a reason and it is indeed the fault of North Korea, Ming will not intervene in the war of foreign countries.

After getting the promise, Wa country began to prepare.

After several days of research, they thought of a way to start a war.

That is, North Korean fishermen reached the sea border of their country and clashed with Japanese fishermen, killing several people.

Being bullied at the door, and several people were beaten to death, this kind of thing cannot be tolerated by anyone.

At that time, send envoys to provoke again, say some arrogant and ugly words, isn't this a war?

A few days later, a conflict broke out between North Korea and Japanese fishermen in the waters off Honshu Island. Wa maintained peace as the most important thing and did not attack the North Korean fishermen.

And the North Korean country relied on several women in its own country to be Zhu Di's concubine, brutally and domineeringly killed several fishermen from the Japanese country, and then left after insulting the Japanese country.

The Emperor of Japan refused to be humiliated, and hoped that Shen An, the commander of Daming stationed in Izumo, would stand up and uphold justice on behalf of Daming.

Shen An, who had been instructed by Zhu Zhangui long ago, maintained a sympathetic attitude towards this matter. Although he wanted to help the Wa country, Daming had always remained neutral in the matter of Fanbang's vassal state, and he was powerless about it.

In the end, Shen An suggested that the two parties should send envoys to resolve themselves and try not to cause conflicts.

Wa Kingdom, who received the hint, immediately relaxed their hanging heart. Without Daming Kingdom's intervention, they would surely win this battle.

Then Wa sent envoys to North Korea to discuss the matter.

During the negotiations, the Japanese envoy Shizi opened his mouth and directly handed over the treaty that Daming had signed to them, changed its name, and handed it to North Korea.

Naturally, the North Korean side did not do it, and the two sides clashed in the hall. The Japanese envoy was ordered to be executed by the King of Joseon, and only a small person was sent back with his ears and nose cut off.

Seeing the success of the plan, the Wa Kingdom was delighted to find Shen An, the commander of Daming stationed in the Wa Kingdom, and complained tearfully about the arrogance of the North Korean Kingdom.

Hearing Wa's cry, Shen An expressed sympathy and dissatisfaction with North Korea.

With a lot of money and beauties stuffed in, and under the tacit attitude of Shen An, who was stationed in Japan in the Ming Dynasty, the North Korean conquest plan officially started.

"Your Highness, the overall cause and result of the battle are like this."

At Weihaiwei Navy Temporary Base, Li Hu gave an overview of the intelligence collected by the Navy.

Although Zhu Zhangui secretly acquiesced in Japan's attack on North Korea, he only knew a general result, and the overall arrangement was carried out by people from the navy.

After hearing the current situation, Zhu Zhangui got up and walked to the map, looked at the map of Japan and North Korea and asked, "How long will it take for the sea to thaw."

"According to the past practice, the freeze will be thawed in about half a month, and the ship will be able to move after a month." Li Hu replied without hesitation.

As the chief officer of the navy, he is familiar with all kinds of climate and currents in the ocean.

Zhu Zhangui nodded slightly, raised his hand and pointed at the location of Seoul, "How long can North Korea last?"

An intelligence officer stood up, "According to the information we have received, and with the help of personnel sent by our army in advance, North Korea will have no problem supporting the ice until the sea surface melts."

"Furthermore, the Wa Kingdom also stopped attacking during this period. After all, the ice on the sea is not only affecting us, but also them, and they are even more affected. After all, their logistics all rely on ship transportation and local collection."

Zhu Zhangui chuckled, raised his hand and patted the map.

"As soon as the ice melts, attack immediately. The first step is to cut off their supply line from Tsushima Island. I want the entire Japanese country to not allow a piece of wood to go into the sea."

"At the same time, send a ship to inform Shen An, and immediately launch an attack on the Wa country after receiving the order."

"My order to him is that before I settle the Korean War and set foot on the island of Wa, I want the flag of Ming to fly over the entire Wa."

"As ordered!"

All the generals shouted in unison, saluted and turned to leave.

At the beginning of March 18, the sea ice gradually lifted.

As the waves beat again, the winter fleet was docked on the shore. Under the service of naval officers and soldiers, it moved its stiff body, filled it with soldiers and various supplies, spread its sails and set sail against the wind, to the war-torn fleet. away from the Korean peninsula.

"Kill Gee!"

Under the city of Seoul, countless short pumpkin warriors, holding shields and wielding Japanese swords, under the cover of musketeers not far away and the artillery that burst out of flames from time to time, stepped on countless corpses, shouting and launching a ferocious attack.

As winter passed, the battle that had been suspended for two months began again.

Wa warriors, who had enjoyed a winter on the Korean peninsula, were called by their officers early in the morning, crawled out of the arms of a warm Korean woman, and then excitedly put on cold leather armor, ready to launch a new year's offensive .

Their commander has promised that as long as they take Seoul for three days without sealing the knife, they will burn, kill and rob at will.

After being beaten up by Da Ming, the little Woguas who have lived a hard life for several years have long been looking forward to the arrival of this happy day.

Thinking of the white-skinned woman, and the delicious food and alluring gold and silver.

Even though they knew that the siege had suffered heavy casualties, the hearts of the Japanese warriors were still very hot.

Little Douding, like an ant, was attached to the ladder on the city wall, howling like a ghost, and desperately climbed towards the city wall.

The little Woguas attacked crazily, and the sticks were not to be outdone. Under the command of some Ming military officers, they frantically killed Xiaodouding with various weapons for defending the city.

Rolling stones, giant trees, rain of arrows, golden juice...

Every kind of defensive item thrown down will cause bursts of miserable howls.

The little melons with grim expressions were smashed to death, burned to death, and shot to death like dirty little cockroaches.

Pieces of corpses piled up under the city wall, and the bright red and smelly blood merged into red streams, flowing to the low-lying places in the distance.

"Your Excellency, General Qi, when will Daming's support troops arrive? Our soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and there is not much food left in the city. I'm afraid we won't last long."

In a city tower, a minister of North Korea fearfully glanced at the shouting outside the city, and nervously asked a man wearing a Ming costume next to him.

Qi Yuan, a thousand households of the Japanese army in Weihai Weibei, Shandong.

Since the navy was stationed in Weihaiwei, Li Hu directly took over the local command. In order to prevent the sticks from losing so quickly, after asking Zhu Zhangui for instructions, Li Hu transferred the officers of Qianhu who prepared the Japanese army to the North Korea, let them train the North Korean army and assist the Bangzi army to guard the city.

After all, fighting Japanese pirates is what they are best at, and it is also their job.

When Qi Yuan first arrived, Bangzi didn't give them cold reception, and entertained them very warmly, but never mentioned contact with the army.

Although Qi Yuan is a martial artist, he has been in the officialdom for so long, and he also understands some of the ways.

He understood that it was because these sticks did not trust them, fearing that after they trained the army, they would indirectly control the stick's army, thus threatening the dominance of the stick.

Qi Yuan didn't care about this, anyway, the order they received was to help the Bangzi Kingdom to stabilize its defense, and they would listen to whatever arrangements the North Korean Bangzi made.

Besides, training soldiers is not as comfortable as eating hot drinks every day and enjoying exotic beauties.

It's a pity that within a few days of the good times, the Japanese country launched an attack, and in less than a month, before they discussed with the King of Joseon which army to go to, a large number of defeated soldiers returned to Seoul, and the Japanese pirates followed closely Come.

Well, it's so easy, the army came here by itself, and there was no need to go to a corner to train the army.

In order to defend and live in Seoul, wait until the reinforcements from Ming Dynasty arrive.

The king of Joseon was afraid that his generals would not be able to defend the city, so he handed over all the rights to Qi Yuan.

In the King of Joseon's mind, the generals who could be sent here by Ming Dynasty could not be useless trash.

Fortunately, the king of Joseon did not guess wrong. Although Qi Yuan is just an ordinary family, his family is a martial arts heir, and his skills are no worse than those famous generals.

The main reason why he is only a thousand households so far is that he has no opportunity and filial piety to the money above.

If he had the opportunity and respected the money above, he might be able to get into the three major battalions as a general now.

In fact, the more important reason is that since the Ming Dynasty's navy became stronger, there was no Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty, and their position in preparing the Japanese army was a bit embarrassing.

Even for several years, the higher-ups seem to have forgotten the existence of their army. If they were not in Shandong, and the navy happened to take them over, Qi Yuan would probably lead his men to open up wasteland and farm to support himself.

Now that he has an errand, after taking over the North Korean army, Qi Yuan used what he had learned all his life, but he used an army of less than 5000 sticks to block nearly 10 Japanese pirates for nearly a hundred days.

This is the record that Qi Yuan has handed over, and it is also the certificate of whether he can join His Highness the Grandson in the future.

Who in the entire Ming Dynasty didn't know that now the military officers wanted to stand out, and they had to go to Taisun's subordinates to have a chance to stand out.

Otherwise, no matter how capable you are, you won't be flattering, and if you don't get some money from above, let alone a promotion, it would be great if you can keep your current position.

Back then, there was a thousand households in Ningbo, and because of their performance in front of His Highness Taisun, they were reused by His Highness, and now they are the commander of a ten thousand cavalry in the Three Thousand Battalion.

Qi Yuan didn't want to be mediocre for the rest of his life, he wanted to use his merits in guarding the city of Seoul to exchange for someone else, so he recommended himself to His Highness Taisun.

He also wanted to give his brothers who had been forgotten by the imperial court a chance to live, eat and wear warm clothes.

After all, if they don't work hard, their Japanese army will be disbanded.

Brothers who have been in the army all their lives, if they are dismissed, they will not even have the skills of Hukou.

So no matter what, he had to enter the eyes of His Highness the Grandson and pull up his brothers who depended on him for food again.

"Don't worry, the sea has thawed now, and I believe the troops supported by the imperial court have already set off."

Qi Yuan looked up at the sky, made some calculations in his mind, and said to the officials sent by the Joseon King: "Go back and tell your majesty that the imperial support troops will arrive in at most three days, so he must be stable no matter what. Three days in the city."

"Please don't worry about things outside the city. As long as I'm still alive, mere pirates won't be able to enter the city."

Talking so comfortingly to the North Korean officials, Qi Yuan actually wanted the support troops from the imperial court to come later.

Guarding the city for a hundred days is not enough to show his ability.

The emperor's grandson's subordinates are full of talents, and if he doesn't show some dazzling achievements, even if his highness knows about him in the future, he probably won't be too impressed.

Based on his current merits, Qi Yuan thought that when he was rewarded for his merits in the future, he would probably be dismissed by arbitrarily assigned a job.
